can't get chat branch working

[jtkeyva]

Thanks for the nice sample app! I got the main branch working fairly quickly. But when I switched to the chat branch, I had no luck. Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Issue 1:
the pubspec.yaml file references:

fireflutter:
path: packages/fireflutter

but that path doesn't exist.

Issue 2:
I tried just referencing the package directly with:
fireflutter: ^0.0.48

When I try to run I get several errors such as:

The getter 'userChange' isn't defined for the type 'FireFlutter'.
Try importing the library that defines 'userChange', correcting the name to the name of an existing getter, or defining a getter or field named 'userChange'.

A value of type 'ChatPrivateRoom' can't be assigned to a variable of type 'Map<String, dynamic>'.
Try changing the type of the variable, or casting the right-hand type to 'Map<String, dynamic>'.

The getter 'info' isn't defined for the type 'ChatRoom'.
Try importing the library that defines 'info', correcting the name to the name of an existing getter, or defining a getter or field named 'info'.

The getter 'userChange' isn't defined for the type 'FireFlutter'.
Try importing the library that defines 'userChange', correcting the name to the name of an existing getter, or defining a getter or field named 'userChange'.

and several others.

I figured it out. I referenced the chat branch date (Nov 20-30) and so package version 0.0.35 works. I also had to put firestore into test mode because adding users to chatroom threw firestore authentication error.

There are breaking changes to the latest package and I don't quite understand what to do. Would be great to update the demo to use the latest package and specify the updated firestore rules.

Thanks again for your work :)

I'm opening this back up because I would like to try chat functionality with the latest version of flutter fire. there are so many deprecated things and changes that I can't keep up.

Updating this chat example with fireflutter 0.0.48 would be very useful.
Thanks!

Thanks again for the hard work.

I'm still having trouble getting chat to work with this sample_app (chat branch) and fireflutter 0.0.48

I also took some guesses onUserChange etc. Can you please try the demo and update the deprecated code to work with 0.0.48? I think it's just a few variable changes but here are some issues I'm having.

chat.room.screen.dart
await ff.chatSendMessage(info: chat.info, text: _text);

'chatSendMessage' is deprecated and shouldn't be used. User ChatRoom.
Try replacing the use of the deprecated member with the replacement.

chat.enterance.screen.dart
Map<String, dynamic> room = myRoomList.rooms[i];

A value of type 'ChatPrivateRoom' can't be assigned to a variable of type 'Map<String, dynamic>'.
Try changing the type of the variable, or casting the right-hand type to 'Map<String, dynamic>'.dartinvalid_assignment

'userIsLoggedIn' is deprecated and shouldn't be used.
Try replacing the use of the deprecated member with the replacement.

Map<String, dynamic> userPublicData
package:fireflutter/fireflutter.dart
The expression doesn't evaluate to a function, so it can't be invoked.

Good morning.

It's very hard to catch what is causing problems.

Can you share your git repo if possible? So, that I can clone and test your code.

@thruthesky
yes, thank you. please check at:
https://github.com/jtkeyva/fireflutter_sample_app/tree/chat

i simply added fireflutter 0.0.48 to pubspec.yaml in the "chat" branch. you will see when running several deprecated issues
